THE WAGES OF SIN.

The sale of seats for The Wages of Sin
has been one of the best this season. and
indicates emphatically the interest which the
people take in this event. Many will attend,
no doubt, to see Miss lie Baron on the stage
whose talent it is not necessary tor us to
exto. The play alone is well worth seeing
The Dramatic News of New York says:
1.-The Wages of Sin" was produced at the
Fourteenth Street Theatre last night. and
proved to be one of the strongest melodramas
recently seen in New York. The author has
attuned his composition to the highest melo-
dramatic key, and the consequence IS play
which would satisfy the most ravsnous melo-
dramatic appetite.
Of Miss Le Baron the Grand Rapids Tele.
gram had the following:
"Miss lie Baron played Juliana without a
fuult. Her impersonation of the stage struck
maiden was both artistic and laughahle."
